42mm Silver Link Bracelet

Overview

Crafted from the same 316L stainless steel alloy as the case, the Link Bracelet has more than 100 components. The machining process is so precise, it takes nearly nine hours to cut the links for a single band. The custom butterfly closure folds neatly within the bracelet. And several links feature a simple release button, so you can add and remove links without any special tools.

I had this watch for less than two months and the wristband is already scratched and the finish seems to be fading. Very disappointed as I expected a higher standard for an apple product especially at the steep price.

Scratches and shows wear easily

This band looks great from afar but after you've worn it for a few weeks you can really see the scratches and wear and tear on the finish if you look closely.

I bought this band a year ago and the band itself has now just failed, past the warranty period. Don’t get me wrong, it’s comfortable and stylish but with a short lifespan of just over a year, not worth it the money. I though that for the premium price, I would get a premium quality unit capibale of years of service that would allow me to upgrade my watch multiple times, sadly this is not the case. The extendable link system has failed and I have lost the whole unit. Luckily I did find it a short time later. I also found the closure touchy, at times it would pop too easily. My opinion, buy something aftermarket from amazon which I’m sure will last longer and not hurt as bad when you want to change.

Do not guy this band. This is absolutely poorly designed product. I received this band for Christmas gift. I put it on and immediately felt the sharp edges all around my wrist. I could not believe Apple put this on the shelf. We were in different Apple store in various cities but could not find any store carried this band in the store to try it on. Now we understand the reason. Apple does not want you to try it before you buy it. This is not meant to be worn. Seriously!! It's over $450 for poor quality like this. I think it's a joke...

I've had the Apple Watch since the very first day they were available. The Link Bracelet is an incredible piece of workmanship and as a Designer, CNC Machinist, and Engineer, I completely understand the engineering and manufacturing that were used to make it what it is.
Many have complained that it scratches easily, but 316L Stainless Steel is a superb material and holds up quite well in harsh environments. Yes, it will scratch with daily wear and tear, but that is to be expected. Anyone that expects otherwise doesn't understand the material characteristics and must be expecting something like a band made of diamonds. I mean, yeah, they are $450, but things do wear out, even of the best of quality. Even the (most likely DLC coated) Space Black version scratches. You can refinish the bracelet with sand paper, which is, (crazy as it may sound to some), how Apple gets the finish on this product. By far, the best band for the Apple Watch in my opinion.
